Technically if you’re using Apple Maps you’re mostly using OpenStreetMap (UK) and TomTom (Dutch) so you’re not committing the gravest kind of crimes against European motherland.
I see... Still they get my data somehow, and they don't go to European companies too, am I right?
Apple pays TomTom for their map data. Using Apple Maps on Apple devices is a natural choice for those who are looking for a polished alternative that doesn’t sacrifice too much compared to Google Maps.
Thanks for explaining! I'm an apple user so this can be a valid alternative. I wonder what other people think about it. I guess it is still better try to support other platform directly
